LULU

Difficult-Virus-3003

I love how you spent a year studying Greeks and moats just to realize that $LULU and $UNH don’t give a shit about your engineering degree. 20% is cute for a bull market, but you’re basically just picking up pennies in front of an institutional steamroller. While you’re calculating P/E ratios like it’s 1995, some whale is building a $5M stealth position in total silence. By the time you ‘value invest’ into it, they’re already using you as exit liquidity. Nice recap, but stop trading like a boomer and start looking at where the actual money is moving before the news tells you why.

Difficult-Virus-3003

Your transition from value investing to mechanical Theta decay is a logical progression toward discipline, but you are still operating entirely within the **publicly accepted narrative.** Relying on "quality estimations," P/E ratios, and moats is essentially looking in the rearview mirror. By the time a company looks like a "world leader" on a value screener, institutional capital has often already completed its positioning. The 20% return is a result of a bull market and mechanical consistency, but the true risk in 2026 is the **Information Gap.** The market doesn't reward you for understanding the balance sheet that everyone else has already downloaded. It rewards you for identifying **structural capital behavior** before the narrative catches up. If you want to reach that $500k milestone without becoming exit liquidity for the next "surprise" like LULU, stop focusing on what the stock *should* be worth based on legacy moats. Start looking at the **coordinated options campaigns** that occur in total silence. When you see aggressive, multi-strike positioning that contradicts the current public sentiment, you are seeing the move before it becomes a "news event." Alpha isn't found in the moat; it's found in the silence before the narrative forms. Stay cold. Keep the discipline, but look for the footprints of capital that moves before the story exists.

msft is a winning horse, not going anywhere, u gona bag hold them but i promise ull make ur 4k vack and then some, actually the MSFT position alone will cancel CRM/LULU losses, trust, nancy is long on MSFT and so is every retirement 401k, look into what all of them hold, MSFT.

"Buy software stocks" >LULU Wat.

LULU is a dying brand, you’re going to be bagholding for years or forever.

Burry is cooked MOH, LULU, and EL

LULU, PYPL, ADBE, UNH, ORCL maybe 🤔

I'm glad I sold half my LULU when it was at 210, time to get more again

daedalus_dance

We're dropping LULU too eh? Didn't know LULU was into software.

daedalus_dance

LULU touched me wrong and now I'm sad.

Crazy LULU is this low

RustyGriswold99

I'm not exactly sure what you're trying to argue at this point. Consumer staples outperforming during a downturn is literally the market agreeing with me, not you. Money rotating into WMT, KO, PEP, and MCD is a defensive move, it's investors saying "the consumer is under stress so I'm going to hide in companies that sell things people can't stop buying regardless of economic conditions." That's not a exactly a sign of a booming economy. Your original point was that stores are busy, stocks are up, and there's no reason to sell. If that were true, you'd see money flowing into discretionary and growth (SBUX, LULU, NKE), not into Campbell's soup and Pepsi.

expensive but good = LULU briefs

daedalus_dance

LULU is trying to apologise for what it did to me.

Megaloman-_-

It’s very simple. It’s because I started selling cash secured puts on it. My previous victims are LULU, VST and RGTI….

LULU green today. MILFs are making a comeback

ohadbx

Thanks for the comment! I completely understand your point about being assigned on multiple tickers at once and its my main focus point for risk management. Looking back to Feb the largest 4 were I took were: \* CRWD -3100$ \* UNH -2900$ \* LULU -2600$ \* TSLA -1800$ CRWD and TSLA were rolled and recovered the following weeks (the rolling itself is written as a loss in my journal, as it should!) . UNH and LULU still selling CC's against. I am not planning on selling naked puts against TSLA anytime soon again, just because I don't understand the company and its valuation. On LULU and apparel in general already commented in the post. UNH and CRWD would probably do it again if I'm honest.

Burry says LULU is an interesting takeover target 

ChairmanMeow1986

Good first year, looking good! You've probably considered this, as you talked about keeping a cash position in REIT's and bond ETF's for an income earning cash-position, but the main thing I'd be cautious about is a market wide down turn if you have too much capital tied up with CSPs and assigned positions. Not a problem in a bull market, but a sharp market wide drop followed by a down trend could leave much of your capital positioned where you can't profitably sell CC's above your cost-average for long periods of time. At that point you have to wait for it to stabilize near a local bottom and hope it's a good time to average down or, 1. have a much smaller amount of income generating capital as you hold your stock picks through a bear market. So you really want to make sure the majority of your holdings are going to be something you will hold if it's down 30% in your portfolio one day. 2. Be willing to selling CC's where you might be realizing increasingly large losses. 3. Choosing a point to realize losses out right selling in favor of cash position. This is the one that tends to really damage Trading Portfolios and potentially walk back years of compounding returns. I do like most of the tickers you listed (besides UNH and LULU) for long-term investing though. Thanks for sharing in such detail! Yeah other markets; commodities, crypto, futures, metals, currency etc can wreck you if you're not familiar. I mostly stick with equities simply because I understand that market best and have had some singed fingers in the past as well lol. Little curious if you remember what happened in February? I understand you we're probably just finding your feet Trading with real money, just curious on what happened/lessons learned?

Lapidated_Llama

Honestly LULU calls here are probably a solid bet.

microdosingrn

Not worth much, but I have a good friend who is a higher up at nike. He was telling me they are getting their lunch eaten by ON and LULU, and the younger generations think Nike is for boomers and "ghetto".

ConstantAd1

Lemon's been on the news a lot lately .. calls on $LULU

SharestepAI

I can't comment on DOKA-CH, but the other three look pretty solid. Micron is hard to miss at the moment - I hadn't noticed however that forward PE is still just 13x. SLM Corp has a monster profit margin of 45.1%. I'm surprised that LULU was the winning stock - by my analysis, it looks like the worst of the the three.

dvdmovie1

"Curious to know what other think." No thanks. I tend to dislike investing in consumer brands but if I do they have to be a compelling story and I just don't see LULU's potential turnaround as such. They just had a "see through" recall the other day.

leomeng

Buy SLV U and LULU

itsnotshade

Surely this is the bottom for LULU. Are zoomer chicks not buying overpriced leggings anymore?

numerousdesaster

all the locusts are bailin' on Tesla and hikin' over to SNDK, deadass... once y'all are done wit' SNDK, catch a flight over to LULU

Spanisbro2

LULU 12$ away from 52 week low again feel bad for anyone that was caught on last earnings pump that shit is dying

Gristle__McThornbody

No one is mentioning it but LULU is taking a fat shit like bitcoiun.

br0botic

Probably watch my LULU bags get heavier tomorrow

akunisg

I am starting to think the reason LULU falling so hard on no news is some wall street trader taking millions loss from MSFT and his boss said get some fresh funds and make up the loss in a month or you're gone. this AI capex thing gonna end careers from wall street faster than jobs from traditional sectors

CriticalBlackberry90

LULU gonna need Sydney Sweeney and POTUS to save them at this point

br0botic

LULU going to zero

akunisg

if you think something is undervalued right now, just know that LULU is less than it was in June 20fucking19. how the market values it makes me think either I am delusional or yall regards I see their new store opening all the time by the way, decoration pretty nice

Ok_Rent5670

LULU down another 2.5%. All the gains lost now. Epic :D

spellbadgrammargood

LULU back to 176, I can't wait to see all those "Is LULU a buy???" posts

Spanisbro2

LULU will touch 100 before ever going back to 200

Ok_Rent5670

LULU -4% 💀

ProofByVerbosity

Personally would not go LULU. Volume is low, below 200 day and 50 day. So much compitition.

boiler2000

What the fuck LULU

CasherburyTales

LULU…women would line up in the apocalypse for their leggings

Stitch426

I’m sure there will be plenty of ambulance chasing law firms. As far as analysts missing expectations… UNH, LULU, and FISV should definitely be used as an example of where analysts might as well be Cramer on mushrooms. Yet stocks live or die based on random numbers they spitball. Not an investor in INTC, but I would consider a 17-20% drop like a stubbed toe in the tech world. 30%+ drop with rivals who are kicking the company’s rear end? Time to call time of death, at least for a couple of quarters. Trump and money can’t save a mismanaged company, especially if there are extra challenges to contend with.

Bullish on see through LULU pants

silverfutes

If I can't wear pajama pants to work, you shouldn't be allowed to wear LULU.

Spanisbro2

LULU back to 150 in 1-2 months lol

ExplorerAceX

I got destroyed on LULU too and I am a girl that has done tons of shopping from Lululemon recently.

Therex26

Puts in LULU comeback plan is backfiring lmao 🤣

Stunnato

I just don’t see anything positive. I had long calls and sold my position before the split, thank goodness. Alot like LULU imo, the market is saying that it doesn’t like what’s happening. I’m all about buying value, but there’s nothing positive right now. Much smarter to wait and see if there are positive developments before jumping in. TGT looks good though, and it’s gaining momentum.

pixelatedCorgi

I too was butt-fucked by LULU today. I don’t even know why I keep it. Vuori is the same thing but better / classier. Just hasn’t IPOd yet

thinkorscream

I think you are very correct. I.m so damaged from names like Jack "shroomin" Dorsey's Square, Novavax, TWLO, and more recently LULU with their fall last year. The list is embarrassingly long. Can you share some of your routine on finviz or was there anything specific on finviz that you use for technicals? Just tryin to learn from others.

LULU? LOW LOW META? Murdered REDDIT? Forget it

_hiddenscout

Looks like LULU is halting sales of their new collection

My portfolio!!!!!!!!! LULU, crushed! Meta, dead! Reddit, forget about it! EVEN MY FUCKING GOOG!!!! WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!

LULU doing the downward dog right now

LULU

Guilty_Psychology_28

I'm sure the guy holding LULU bags he bought in 2024 would totally agree

Cdecar06812

LULU should be in the $380 range with earnings in excess of $14 a share!

trent_upscale

She's a 7, but she's long LULU

Cdecar06812

LULU will break out where other retailers are failing. Price target for mid year $325

Less_Cauliflower4953

Why is no one talking about LULU

plznodownvotes

Algos really battered LULU today because of the no ruling.

satansbutthole069

I think that LULU has pretty solid fundamentals but has been beaten DOWN  the last year. I bought in November and it’s going well, but I still think it has a lot of room to rebound.  This podcast is from August 17 ($203/share at the time) and does a good job discussing fundamentals and valuation at that time. It dropped 20%-ish shortly after (down to $159). It’s now back to $211.  https://overcast.fm/+ABFfC6OdNI0 Happy to hear anyone else’s thoughts?

leomeng

Got positions in TGT and LULU for tariff ruling. Just bought some AMZN shares. Retailers are positioning for a ruling soon

OilBerta

Buying the LULU, SPOT, and PYPL dip.

Droppedudown

Zoom out to 10+ years. I don't like clothing store stocks but LULU has performed exceptionally in comparison to its peer companies

eddie_yvp

I recently took positions in NKE and LULU. Jan 2028 calls. I’m heavy on tech stocks so more of a diversification play, but I see decent upside here. Also took a flyer on RBLX Jan 2027 calls. My kids spend too much money on robux…

Slightlybadpicks

Look at LULU and Nike pumping. Someone knows something……..

Aerotyne69

!banbet LULU +5% 4d

nonsanes

Upwards huh. Have you seen the LULU chart lately

FAGR-

LULU is better

MrMoist

You can check my post history. I’ve been shilling $HOOD since it was at $36 and $LULU when it was at all time lows, but WSB doesn’t care unless the stock starts pumping. I’m still holding onto this. Zara and Uniqlo are its direct competition and they’re valued at $150bil whereas Aritzia is still valued at only at 11bil. I’m holding for a 10x in the next 2-5 years

Mkubwa85383

Would never recommend OTM to anyone but I do buy conviction plays with liquidity. Bought one on LULU and now it's ITM with a 70 delta

Nay_120

Retail company stock price going up significantly. We knew how that story ends (e.g. DECK, LULU)

I am an Asian living in California and my sisters and girl friends (all asian) absolutely love this place Going to trend upwards similarly like LULU

issaweirdo21

He went long on LULU in Q2 and Q3 last year. That has panned out pretty well

crazybitcoinlunatic

Didn’t your girlfriend tell you that LULU is not trendy anymore. Apparently when everyone started wearing it, the brand lost its exclusivity.

SPY pumping to ATH and here I am with LULU calls

leomeng

Bought LAC. Bought RVMD. Bought NFLX. Bought LULU calls. Lost on COST. Keeping my TGT March calls on.

plznodownvotes

LULU got absolutely pummelled today by the non decision while other retailers are either up or barely down. Why?!

Lapidated_Llama

Apple and LULU calls 7DE. Let’s see how this pans out.

Lapidated_Llama

Day trading stocks. Just bought LULU at the bottom with calls that expire next week. I’ll prolly hold them tbh

Lapidated_Llama

Let’s go LULU!! Only put 25% of my portfolio in LULU calls tha expire next week but they’re up 22% already.

W_Malinowski

LULU dumping like tariffs upheld

S-Club-Party

Big retailers like WMT/TGT/COST, importers like LULU/DIS/AAPL. If steel/aluminum tariffs are part of this then F and GM.

I just sold my longer dated LULU calls and bought same number of contracts expiring tomorrow. Playing with house money for tomorrow

Market seems to be thinking LULU and DIS will be winners of the tariff decision

Pure_Veterinarian374

Very tempted to go in on some LULU calls for the SCOTUS ruling tomorrow

cannythecat

Scooped up LULU calls at the sell off this morning, hoping it'll fly after the tariff ruling.

Ahh so I can’t post photos in the comment. Anyway here’s my current portfolio: NKE 32 %, LULU 22 %, CPB 19 %, WEN 17 %, FISV 9 %.

fuckthis_job

I think you'd be better off betting on specific companies as opposed to the market as a whole. I personally like AMZN, WMT, W, LULU, and NKE
